Chapter 178

Theresa only met Brandon once, and Sophia knew about it.

But she didn't expect such a little kid to remember that meeting.

Brandon seemed to sense something from afar, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, then he slowly turned around and looked toward Sophia.

Theresa, on the other end of the phone, saw Brandon looking back and excitedly waved at him.

Little did she know that Brandon, outside the camera's view, couldn't see her.

After waving and not seeing any response from Brandon, she brought her face closer to the phone screen, her eyes wide and round with confusion.

"Mom, mom? Why isn't Handsome Uncle paying attention to me?"

Her tiny finger poked at Brandon's face on the screen with a puzzled expression.

Sophia gave her a complex look, then turned her gaze back to Brandon, who was still frowning in their direction.

Brandon's brows were locked tight, and his eyes resting on Sophia were calm and profound.

Sophia didn't dare to speak, aware that every word she said to Theresa might be deciphered by Brandon from the movements of her lips.
